holidays/new year

since we had plans to head to the nyc for a few days, we left my parent's house on christmas afternoon and headed home.  it was nice to be in our home, christmas tree lit, on christmas day - and give emre a chance to enjoy his loot : )  the next day we headed to nyc for a two night get away (in hindsight, what a horrible idea visiting the city along with all of the other tourists). 

emre watching tv on christmas evening with his new present from mama in full view

settling into our hotel in midtown manhattan

aunti verna came to see us & ben was kind enough to stay with the kids while we went out to dinner

i came home to sleeping boys… except kaan, of course!

we spent time with serdar amca as well & made a trip to the candy bar for emre's enjoyment

back home & catching up on sleep


fun dinner with joe & kate in oneonta

the family came to us for new year's eve.  sooo awesome to be able to get together so easily for the holidays!

mom & dad went home to celebrate the new year.  jeffrey had to work & drove up that night, so sarah and i spent the evening baking cupcakes & cooking up a delicious cheese fondue while (enjoying plenty of refreshments and) watching the kiddos.
